Previously to Mr. Rail-ton's departure there
wa* a good deal uf excitement created by the mi-
nmrou* reports in circulation respecting our troops
Expresses had linen sent out in every direction
by dm Governor nnd private citizen* t<* ascertain
their truth, but many of them, after being nut two

satisfactorily. Tho whole country i* in a stale of

scssiotis, and putting !lmm*clrcs in ,1 position that
they can bo'out of harin’* way in n monienl's war-

of the Governor wa* made, nnd word sent to Gnu.
Kearney hy our informant to that efioct; and he
further say* that if u respectable force comes upon

Tho N. 0. Picayune of tho 23d inst. says
Since our last publication wo have boon placed in
posseMion of intelligence from Havana which
throwa more light upon tho tuoveumuta of Simla
Anne, The letter* containing ilium were brough 1
hither on ilm P. Soldo, lo hu dulivared personally,
from which cause limy reached their deBtimiiiou
only on Thursday evening last. From mm of
these letter*, dated tho 6lh inst., we make ou
extract—
**••••• "The slow transient En
glish sloamer Arab is, chartered to sail to night at
11 o'clock. She doors for Sisal, and tnkoa with
her Generals Almonte,Bcaon,[vvc think this should
boKcjon—Eds.] Santa Anna and family, to Mex

pairs nnd wna tried a few days since on a pleasure

This tattler sufficiently account*for the non-np-
punrnnee of Santa Anna at Vern Cruz before the
Mississippi left there. Wa nntinuuccd a* far hnck
n* 1*1 inst., upon the arrival of Ilm Titi, that Gen
B-ioadre, n former member of .Santa Anna’* Cabi
net, soiled from Havana for Si*il and thcnco lo
Tabasco mi the the 10th of July. Wn entertain
little doubt that hi* expedition was duHigued to
prepare tho wny for Santa Anna, hy providing
Ihu mean* of speedy communication along the
const from Tabasco to Alvordo and Vera Cruz,
nud making other necessary preparation. Tho
latest account* v\’c have from Tabasco represent
that Department in that state of commotion which
ill Mexico precede* a revolution. Tho people
woro even in advance of the Vera Cruzanns, nnd
will 110 doubt flock lo Santa Anna's standard,now
Hint ho tnauy Department* have declared for him.
We have korii other tailor* from Havana which
leave no kind of doubt upon our uiiud* that Santa
Anna got off at Ilm time lie expected to do. tlm 8tli
of August. We bIiqII expect to hear from him
next at Vera Cruz, though wo fear wo may he
kept inn provoking male of Hiispeuse till tho next
English steamer'* advices reach us, nome three

Yucninu,
TlieN. H. Picayune of the 23d in*!, nay*:—We
turned over a file nf Yucntott paper* yesterday,of
the latest dates received from tliut Peninsula —
They confirm entirely the impression which wo
had been tad In entertain in regard to the feeling*
of thn ponplo of Yucatan towards Mexico nml the
United Elalo*. No truant Nchoollmy could exhib
it a more eager dosiru to make hi* peace with a
village pu-lagoguo Ilian Yucatan mnnil'esl* lo hu re
ceived back into Ihu Muxican union. There is a
great deal of talking "around and nrotiud. about
And about," lull the truth is apparent through all
disgui*.)* and pretext*. Having availed herself of
ihe weak inis* of the .Mexican confederacy, she at
tempted to extort some peculiar coiiinieici.il priv
ileges from tho Cotitrnl Government, and she suc
ceeded in her design. Hut the Central Govern-
muni bus been quite too jealous of it* right- to ac
quiesce in tlie-o grants extorted fiom it* weakio's*.
and ull that Yucatan now de irus is to obtain a cer
tain und precise euarnnly fiotn her that Yucatan
may hold in perpetuity these commercial advnnta-
g -s. This question Mettled in it* favor, the Penin
sula is as thoroughly Mexican nt heart a* any por
tion of tint country, and thn present display of in
dependence is hut a hollow hIiow, Every para
graph we rend ill ilia pipers from ihu Peninsula
show* that thn population sympathize with the
Central Govorumout in its distresses, and if tho
prayer* of tho Yucnteco* could avail,the army und
tlm navy of the United Slates would bo utterly
worsted in tho contest going uu. In the mean
time Yucatan is driving a very good trade to and
from Mexican pert*, and the money she make* i*
tbo sole cnnmlntiou she has for standing nloofnnd
taking no direct pari against us.

Mr. Editor—I nut pleased lo punjoivo from’sev
eral articles which have recently appeared in Hm
Republican, that soma of our citizens two becom
ing alive tu thn ntprohondlita conduct of our Ne
gro population. 'Phis i*a subject m which our
whole enurnunity i* deeply concerned, nml if
tlioro are lawst 1 control the tn illor, th-y shnuhl hn
strictly—rigidly—enforc'd; an I I hope, for Hie
sako of decency, and a dun regard to tlm charac
ter of tho city, that the proper nullmrities will
at once look well to it and leave no efforts iintri-
0 ! tn work n reform-itioN. and pul a stop to tho
growing evil. Tlmt the evil docs exist, to an insuf
ferable extent, tin one will pretend to deny.—
It ts too glaring tn pas* unobserved—it t* of hourly,
daily, and niglfly, occurrence, and at our own
doors and under nnr own window*. If there i*
a skeptic on Iho subject, let him place himself,from
about half pa«t 7 o'clock until hell ring, on nny
night in the week, but more especially 011 Sunday
night, anywhere in the neitthlmrhond of a grog
shop, nnd Im wdt want no furilmr evidence. Mi .
Editor, why do ■* (hi* state of tiling* exist ? It is
nH so in our si ?tar city of Charleston; you may
pas* up and down the atre* ts there, night nml
day, and will ml find a parallel. When you meet
a negro there, Un will respectfully step aside, and
a>hnv you to pass without interruption. But here,
in our good city of Ogothnrpe, the minor i* en
tirely reve rsed -the negro expects you to stand*
nsido and lot Atm pass, and will, nt least nine times
out often, inalce n strong otforl to crowd you off
llmpnvcmout. Why Hit*differonco, Mr.Editor?
The interests of both cities am about th« same,and

It appear* to mo, Mr. Editor, that the license
law, n« it now oxit* in our city (I umaii iliolnw
that allow* certain grocer* to retail out liquors hy
the glass to neuron*) is wrong and wefully abused,
nnd to tin* fact may bo tiaeed most of tlm evil un

grocer who take* out n No. 3 license, (which allows
hi n tn sell liquor by llio single glass) is required
11 pay into Ihe oily treasury $1)1, and i* compel
